Twelve Monkeys

I liked it also

"12 Monkeys" is one of the best time travel paradox films in the sci-fi genre with a Hitchcockian (or maybe Brian De Palma?) surprise ending. One or two less ticks by Mr. Pitt could have made me completely buy into his performance but that's likely nitpickery.

Pitt's character is completely overdone, but it adds to the madcap effect of the world-gone-crazy that the movie works so hard to convey, in my opinion. Remember when Bruce Willis eats a live spider to retain an organic animal sample back through time? My point exactly.

I enjoyed it several times. It seems to me that time travel stories almost always work. They have to be just horrendously bad not to work, since the premise is so interesting.

liked it. I like Bruce Willis

Saw it once, it was good

I have heard it for several times, is this something about a terrible virus?

Right you are and here's a link:

It is as eccentric as other Terry Gilliam films such as "Brazil" and "Baron Muchausen."

(Very enjoyably eccentric, that is).

have seen 12 monkeys three times and can say that i enjoyed it more each time i saw it and that its real easy to get lost in it once you start watching. have seen brazil which i thought was amazing and baron munchausen wich is good but not as good.

No, "Baron Muchausen" has the wit and great production design but it doesn't have the satirical weight of "12 Monkeys" or "Brazil." "Brazil" tends to haunt one after they've seen it and they must see it again to get into its' profound commentary on the human condition. It's humankind in it's eternal battle to keep up with technology and what impact that technology has on our personal lives. Really incredible, and now I have to go home a hook up the two rear channels of my THX system...eerrrghh.
